Happy Thanksgiving!

Seminary Appreciation Dinners 

held on November 18, 19 and 22

at Alma Gaucha Restaurant!

​

For the past 10 years, we have held a gala dinner to help defray some of the operating expenses of running the Seminary. This year, however, in spite of a couple of attempts, we were still not able to hold the dinner and it is now postponed to May 2, 2021.

Cardinal Seán O’Malley and the Neocatechumenal Way

For the Boston Pilot Special Edition on the 50th Anniversary of Cardinal Seán’s ordination to the priesthood, Tom Noé of the Neocatechumenal Center of Boston, wrote a beautiful article on the Cardinal’s relationship with the Neocatechumenal Way. Defined by St. John Paul II as “an itinerary of Catholic formation, valid for our society and for our times,” this charism is also where all our seminarians discovered their vocation to the priesthood.

Cardinal Seán and

Redemptoris Mater Seminary

I was asked to prepare an article for the Boston Pilot edition of October 16, 2020 commemorating Cardinal Seán O’Malley’s 50th Anniversary of Ordination to the Priesthood. The Cardinal’s logo, “Do Whatever He Tells You” served as a model to begin in the Archdiocese a reform of the seminaries and priestly formation.
